TRANSFER: ARSENAL, CHELSEA STILL IN RACE TO SIGN OSIMHEN – SOURCE
Transfer specialist Ben Jacobs claims that Premier League heavyweights, Chelsea and Arsenal are still in the running to capture Victor Osimhen.
Despite agreeing to a contract extension last December, Osimhen is anticipated to depart the Serie A champions this summer.
According to reports, the forward’s new contract contains a release clause worth over €130 million.
Aside from Chelsea and Arsenal, Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain are also said to be interested in the player.
Jacobs, however, stated that Osimhen’s priority is to move to England at the end of the season.
“We still can’t rule out Arsenal in the race for Osimhen. It’s also true that PSG have Osimhen very, very high on their list of targets and can move in the market because they will free up money due to Kylian Mbappe’s departure,” the journalist told Givemesport.
“I’m still told by sources that Osimhen’s priority is the Premier League, which is encouraging for Chelsea and Arsenal. He would be looking for about £250,000 per week, which Arsenal, Chelsea and PSG would all be happy to pay.”
